Original Abstract Submitted
techniques include using, in addition to imu signals, audio captured by one or more microphones on a wearable device to determine whether a gesture has been made, and if so, which gesture has been made. the imus provide a first electronic signal to processing circuitry on the wearable device in response to detected motion. the one or more microphones provide a second electronic signal to the processing circuitry in response to detected audio resulting from a gesture. the processing circuitry determines whether a predefined gesture has been made based at least on the first electronic signal and the second electronic signal. if the processing circuitry determines that the predefined gesture was made, the processing circuitry performs an operation on the wearable device corresponding to the predefined gesture.
